Such a great cottage that had everything we needed. Super clean, warm, walking distance to the ticket booths for Iwatake and Hakuba Brew Pub! So much room and comfort. Bathroom was great, the kitchen super clean and had everything we needed. Next time we'll load up the little fridge and not have to rely on going out for dinner so much. The cabins are so nice inside. All light wood paneled and not your typical Japanese insulation; they stayed warm the whole day and night! We will be coming back...
Wonderful authentic Ryocan Oncen experience. The entire staff were pleasant, helpful, and polite. The ryocan is located in a beautiful valley that is home to rice paddies and vegetable gardens. The private onsen is a great way to go for the modest ones. The half pension included an authentic and fresh chef’s menu.
My husband and I stayed 1 night at this hotel. The check-in was simple and the staff was friendly and helpful. We speak very little Japanese and there was no problem. We were offered the opportunity to change our room, but declined and stayed in the standard double room. This room is very small but was okay for us for one night. It would be challenging for those with more/larger luggage than the two small carry-on sized pieces we had. Those with full sized luggage should get a larger room (over...

We were greeted warmly upon our arrival and they showed us a map of the town, asked how they could help, and made great suggestions for dinner.
The gentleman drove my family and I to the Snow Monkey Park and drove us to the train station the next morning.
We had the most delicious cheeseburgers...
As you walk up, how small the building is stands out, as is how the beat up the exterior looke, but once you walk into the lobby, you realize everything is going to be okay.
Not only does everything look nice and clean, but even the smell is great. Staff makes check in great, and then when you get to the room, you once again are greated by a clean smell, something close to baby powder.
The room is decent sized for the price, largely because the entrance has both a clothing cabinet and a table,...
